Spring on Sylt

Spring on Sylt is a time of awakening and color

The island is awakening from its winter slumber. Cafés are opening their terraces, nature is more vibrant, and the first flowers of the year are sprouting vertically from the ground in full color, enchanting Westerland's Town Hall Park, the island's gardens, and other green spaces.
Young lambs graze and leap joyfully along the Lister and Morsum dikes. Gentle sea breezes invite you to take long walks along the beaches. Whether a bike ride through the dunes or a trip to the lighthouses – Sylt in spring promises pure relaxation and enjoyment of nature.

Tips for the flowering season

Observe the spring awakening in the Keitum gardens

Picturesque gardens with apple and cherry trees as well as stone walls decorated with roses, tulips and daffodils give the captain's village of Keitum its charming character.

Here, traditional Frisian houses with their front gardens line up next to each other and enchant with their original architecture.

Enjoy the first rays of sunshine on a long walk on the beach

When temperatures rise in spring, long walks with the sun on your face become a true pleasure. A stroll along Sylt's beach is not only relaxing, but also beneficial for your skin and respiratory system:
The North Sea wind carries valuable minerals and trace elements from the finely dispersed seawater to the shore. Asthmatics and allergy sufferers in particular benefit from the clear, low-irritation air, allowing them to breathe deeply here, away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Explore the island on a bike tour

Cycling on Sylt in spring is a special experience: The island is awash with fresh greenery, the dunes awaken, and the clear North Sea air invites you to take long rides. Well-developed cycle paths lead along the coast, through blooming meadows, and past idyllic villages. With every pedal stroke, you can feel the rising energy of spring and enjoy the tranquility of nature's awakening.

Watching the first lambs of the season

Young lambs graze on the Lister and Morsum dikes, leaping joyfully across the grass. At the same time, the herds make an important contribution to coastal protection: With their firm footsteps, they compact the soil of the dikes, flatten molehills, and ensure the grass stays short and dense.

On the way to Lister Ellenbogen, you'll often encounter entire families of sheep crossing the road—so driving slowly and carefully is essential. To protect the animals, dogs must be kept on a leash.

Sylt's restaurants

What could be more beautiful than enjoying a meal under the Sylt sky in good company while gazing out at the sea? Starting at Easter at the latest, a wider selection of beach bistros and restaurants will be opening their doors.

Most restaurants with outdoor areas are prepared for this and are equipped with cozy blankets, cushions, furs, and heaters, making it a wonderful place to enjoy the fresh air during the day and even around sunset.

Nevertheless, we recommend having an extra sweater with you in case of this.
